Opening scenes are of ruins in Berlin, Germany at the end of World War II in Europe. Damaged Brandenburg Gate and ruined buildings of Berlin. Damaged building of Adlon Hotel. Allied troops move forward in Germany to complete the Allied occupation of Germany. A truck loaded with Allied troops heads towards Berchtesgaden. Smoke rises from the Berghof, German Chancellor Adolf Hitler's mountain residence (Narrator refers to it as the Eagle's Nest, which is not correct. The Eagle's Nest or Kehlsteinhaus was not bombed and is not shown in this clip). Ruins and damaged buildings in Munich including exterior building facade, and arched stair entrance to festhall, marked with painted lettering by American soldiers, "157th infantry, 45th Division." Interior views of the Hofbräuhaus München beer hall (Hofbräuhaus am Platzl), including interior views of ruins inside its drinking room (trinkstube) with shattered windows and broken furniture. (Narrator refers to this as "the famous beer hall." At least two noteworthy NASDAP formative events occurred there: On February 25, 1920, Hitler presented the Nazi Party Twenty Five Point Program there. On November 4, 1921 the National Socialist party held a large public meeting at the Hofbräuhaus and fighting and protesting broke out after Hitler spoke. The Sturmabteilungen, or "SA", then in its infancy, attacked and ejected protestors.)
